Hannes Wader - Shenandoah lyrics

Oh, Missouri, she's a mighty water Away you rolling river! The redskin camp lies on her border Away we're bound to go 'Cross the wide Missouri! Oh, Shenandoah was a redskin maiden And a white man loved that redskin maiden Oh, Missouri, she's a mighty water Away you rolling river! The redskin camp lies on her border Away we're bound to go 'Cross the wide Missouri! Oh, the white man loved the Indian maiden With tradegoods his canoe was laden Oh, Missouri, she's a mighty water Away you rolling river! The redskin camp lies on her border Away we're bound to go 'Cross the wide Missouri! The chief refused the white man's offer And vowedthe white man should not have her Oh, Missouri, she's a mighty water Away you rolling river! The redskin camp lies on her border Away we're bound to go 'Cross the wide Missouri! One da a ship sailed up the river A d brought the chief a strong firewater Oh, Missouri, she's a mighty water Away you rolling river! The redskin camp lies on her border Away we're bound to go 'Cross the wide Missouri! He sold the chief some firewater, And stole the gal across the water Oh, Missouri, she#s a mighty water Away you rolling river! The redskin camp lies on her border Away we're bound to go 'Cross the wide Missouri! Oh, Shenandoah, I love your daughter I'll take her sailing 'cross the water
